Yeah I miss sports.  You do too.

Here's an idea to pass the time:

What's the best 10 man rotation you can put together using only players who averaged less than 10 points per game during the 2019-2020 season?



Edit: using only players who have actually played at least 10 games this season


Bonus:

What's the best 10 man rotation you can put together using only historical seasons of players who averaged less than 10 points per game in that season?

(for this one you can pull from any number of different NBA seasons)



That should give you something to think about for a bit.

Monte Morris / Pat Beverley
Jarret Culver / Avery Bradley
PJ Tucker / Kyle Anderson
Draymond Green / Kelly Olynyk
Marc Gasol / Derrick Favors

Not a bad squad, probably a low seed and a first round exit.

OK, clearly I need to specify that the players in question need to have played at least 10 games this season.

Here's my offering:


Tyus Jones / George Hill
Milton / Terence Davis
M. Porter / J. Ingles
M. Kleber / Olynyk
Favors / Zubac


My crack at a historical one ... just doing a single 5 man lineup b/c 10 is too much:

Ben Wallace (2002)
Dennis Rodman (1990)
Jason Kidd (2009)
Brent Barry (2001)
Shane Battier (2008)


Not sure they'd score at all but it would be fun to watch them play defense.

What about Smart's 18-19 season for the all-time draft?

Porter might be the best selection in the entire league for this.  You need to score some points to win games with these guys, and Porter would probably average 30 points on that team.

For fun, how about the first 5 presidents (no Madison so I just did Adams twice)

Greg Monroe
Kermit Washington
Don Adams
Richard Jefferson
Michael Adams

Lots of different combinations of players with just those names, but all the Presidents you could put together a decent squad.
